The Secret Life of Chaos - BBC4, 22nd August

Post by klr » Mon Aug 22, 2011 10:33 pm

... too late, it's been and gone. :hehe:

But it's not a new program (first broadcast in 2010), so it should be (and is) available on-line. It's repeated in the wee small hours tomorrow morning (23rd August), at 0300 hours. Presented by Professor Jim Al-Khalili, yet another in the team of first-class BBC science presenters.

Try and catch this one if you can - you won't regret it. :smoke:

I didn't check to see if there was a thread on this already, what with the current gremlins.
God has no place within these walls, just like facts have no place within organized religion. - Superintendent Chalmers

It's not up to us to choose which laws we want to obey. If it were, I'd kill everyone who looked at me cock-eyed! - Rex Banner

The Bluebird of Happiness long absent from his life, Ned is visited by the Chicken of Depression. - Gary Larson

The climate modellers should be forced to watch it, especially what he says about the fundamental unpredictability of systems.
They seem to treat the atmosphere like a clockwork machine.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.
